| pubmed-article:6168928 | pubmed:abstractText | The effect of CDP-choline on the in vivo incorporation of labeled precursors into DNA, RNA, and proteins in cerebral hemispheres, cerebellum, and brainstem of guinea pigs after hypoxic treatment was studied. The labeling of macromolecules extracted from the various subcellular fractions of these brain regions was also determined. Hypoxic treatment affected macromolecular labeling to a different extent in the three brain regions examined. CDP-choline treatment was not able to reverse the effect of hypoxia on DNA labeling, but it was able to remove the effect of hypoxia on RNA and protein labeling. The action of CDP-choline was particularly evident on the labeling of RNA in nuclei and mitochondria of the cerebellum and on the labeling of proteins in microsomes of the three brain regions examined. | lld:pubmed |
